A new year and a fresh look to this website !

Membership of the HWAT Open Studios Trail, a collective of professional artists based along the Waveney Valley and Suffolk/Norfolk border,
will mean that I shall be opening my Studio on the following dates in 2017:-

June 24th & 25th, July 1st & 2nd and 8th & 9th.

During 2016 I took a Sabbatical from this membership producing a small amount of work which took my ideas on from the conclusion of summer 2015. This had seen my solo
Exhibition at St Michael's Parish Church in Framlingham, containing some small abstract oil paintings on the theme of 'Borderlands'.

May 25th - 29th

I am returning to St Michael's Parish Church, Framlingham in May of this year, 25th - 29th, as Artist-in-Residence during their Creation themed Flower Festival. At
this stage it is envisaged that paintings will work as 'Stations of Creation' , seven works culminating in a final piece which combines all aspects.

October 1st - 30th

A relatively small solo-show of 16 pieces which is to shown at the Farmer's Kitchen, on the A143 near Homersfield, which will focus entirely on my pastel work,
under the title "All things bright and beautiful" Other members of HWAT are using this Gallery on a month by month basis during the year.

I hope you have enjoyed looking at my website.

As you can tell from my current work, there are new stimulii and ideas to develop up into larger paintings. It nearly always begins with a sketch book and a drawing. This one is from a series
I did while on holiday near Cahours in France, and I remember was a really demanding piece of perspective and tonal analysis.

How good to be challenged and discover a holiday can be as much a time for stimulation and success as it is for relaxation!
